AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The artwork presents a compelling portrait, where tradition meets contemporary flair. Its juxtaposition of decorative beauty with a raw, almost provocative edge creates a dynamic visual experience. The strong composition ensures a sense of balance, making this piece both engaging and thoughtfully resolved. This medium-sized treasure is perfect for adding a unique statement to any wall.
Imagine this distinctive Dutch art piece adorning your living room, study, or entryway. Its gender-neutral subject and rich colors will spark conversation and bring a sophisticated, artistic energy to your space. Discover the unique charm of this original oil painting today.
Ready to hang: no, the painting will be rolled and needs to be stretched again by your local framer. Shipping extra-large formats rolled is safer and more environmentally friendly than shipping finished works. The canvas can easily be stretched on-site by a framer near you.
Seller's Story
The work of Romy van Rijckevorsel is daring, colorful, very inviting for personal interpretations and not without obligation!.
Romy van Rijckevorsel paints in an eclectic way. In her work you see many references to classical artists. (eg Gustav Klimt, decorative backgrounds, but also Egon Schiele). It is also eclectic because of the different styles: drawing, graffiti, painting and
graphic elements. All these elements are very successfully combined into an organic whole in which there is also a unique handwriting lurking. That is very smart, because the combination of references and styles can also go wrong very quickly. In Romy's work, however, she stops at exactly that
right moment. The paintings are very postmodern in the sense of "everything is possible" and yet it is not restless at all. On the one hand the works are very decorative and on the other hand also hard and almost provocative and vulgar. Yet they are balanced, partly due to
the strong composition. (jury report Painting of the year 2020, eventually finished 9th out of 1250 applications)
